Hi, Daniela. I'm your Scala admirer from Ukraine. Thank you for your blogs and the reports of the speaker's role about Scala. You have really always easy to understand explanation about Scala subjects, and about Akka REST API especially. How do you manage this in a disciplined and deeply investigate Scala. What are your secret. I'm learning Scala about two years (in free time) but I can't construct so perfect study plan for my self. Please give a good advice about it. Thank you!

Hi Alexander,
thanks for the kind words!

My advice is to code as much as possible: just reading books and watching talks is not enough.

Start simple -- do not worry about doing things right the first time. Then start to ask yourself (and even people in the community) how you can do better.

Books and courses can guide you through this process learning -- and that is exactly what I'd like for Get Programming with Scala to be.

Another advice is to do open source: by contributing or even having your own open source project, the community can review your code and help you become a better programmer whatever the language of your choice.

Cheers,
Daniela
